I'm an Assistant Professor in the School of Public Policy at Georgia Tech. I study innovation problems in energy, transportation and urban sustainability. My research has been published in leading journals such as Nature Energy and PNAS, as featured in NBC News, CBS radio, NPR, Scientific American, the Economic Times and the Washington Post. I conduct field experiments and use evidence from big data to evaluate the effects of policy interventions at regional and global scales. My latest projects focus on incentives and behavior in electric vehicle mobility and resource conservation in cities. Recent funding awards include grants from the National Science Foundation, Microsoft Research, ESRI, and the Anthony & Jeanne Pritzker Family Foundation.
At Georgia Tech, I am affiliated with the Institute for Data Engineering and Science (IDEaS), the Machine Learning Center, the Strategic Energy Institute, and the Climate and Energy Policy Laboratory. I am a faculty advisor in the Civic Data Science REU program and faculty PI in the GA Smart Cities, Albany Housing Data Analytics and Visualization Initiative. Last year, I received the APPAM 40 for 40 fellowship for early career contributions to the field of public policy.
